Installing "KDE Plasma Desktop" task

KDE Plasma Desktop task is what is installed by Debian-Installer's Desktop"task". You can choose this by going to "Advanced Options" => "Alternative Desktop Environments" => "KDE" in the installer menu (or by typing install desktop=kde at DebianInstaller CD prompt).

To install KDE later, first make sure that tasksel and aptitude are installed:

apt-get install aptitude tasksel

Then, install the kde-desktop task:

aptitude install ~t^desktop$ ~t^kde-desktop$

(This is what DebianInstaller would have installed in a new system, but you might want/need to uninstall the current display manager).
